The 2024–25 Montreal Canadiens season is the franchise's 116th season since its establishment on December 4, 1909, and their 108th season (107th season of play) as member of the National Hockey League.
After finishing as the worst team in the league during the course of the 2021–22 season and fifth-last in both the 2022–23 and 2023–24 campaigns, the rebuilding Canadiens approached the season at hand with the goal of being "in the mix" for the Stanley Cup playoffs until late March or April.[1] Because of this, general manager Kent Hughes opted not to trade pending unrestricted free agents at the annual trade deadline, having judged the team's performance a success to that point.[2][3]
